If a vehicle has broken down in a dangerous location then these vans also have a tow-pole which is used to quickly pull vehicles to a safe location to enable our technician to work on the vehicle is a safe place, keeping the motorist safe aswell.

Six Slidebeds:

Our recovery vehicles are fitted with “slidebed” bodies which means the entire platform of the truck slide off to enable us to recover any car with ease.

Two fully-demountable slidebeds:

These platforms lie nearly completely to the floor, which helps us assist with loading very low high-performance vehicles without the risk of causing damage to the bumpers.
